 // open your Chrome Developer tools, witness miracles!
console.log(await cache.fetch(1)); // this should produce one network request
console.log(await cache.fetch(1)); // this should not produce any network request

cache.fetch(2);// this should produce one network request. NOTICE!!!, we did not wait for its network request to return
console.log(await cache.fetch(2)); // this should not produce any network request

console.log(await cache.batchGet([1, 2])) // this should not produce any network request
console.log(await cache.batchGet([1, 2, 3, 4])) // this should produce one network request with batch requerst for id 3 and 4.
